Originally we had planned to rent an UTV to drive in the desert; however, once we arrived to Lake Havasu City, Arizona my husband decided he would rather ride a jet ski. He grew up driving ATV's, so he felt like it was something he could do at home if he wanted to. Instead, we went on a quest to find a Jet Ski rental place. Some places said it was out of season, one place said the wind was blowing too hard and it was dangerous, but finally we came across a place that offered jet ski rentals. It was ran by some shirtless guy who looked all of 17 years old... he totally didn't care that the winds were over 30 mph. 

Once we got past the no wake zone, and into the open waters, we found that the water was extremely choppy from the surface currents. My husband acted like a need for speed demon and had us bouncing over the waves, and trust me when I say it was a really rough ride. That's why in the video I posted, he said "Sarah thinks I'm going to kill her." The video can be found here: https://d.tube/#!/v/bosssarah/gblq5d9r 

I bought some waterproof fanny packs from Amazon just in case we did any water adventures. Let me just say, these were a lifesaver! That is where I kept my phone, money, identification card, and my husband's wallet. The bags were really affordable and worked. Here is a link just in case you need a good waterproof bag: https://www.amazon.com/3-Zipper-Durable-Waterproof-Lightweight-Adjustable/dp/B06XXKT64Z/ref=pd_sbs_200_3?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B06XXKT64Z&pd_rd_r=D4C8ARRCQ01NFVV5KPA6&pd_rd_w=KzEZX&pd_rd_wg=WYPa9&psc=1&refRID=D4C8ARRCQ01NFVV5KPA6

 Thank goodness I bought the fanny packs, because right the video, once I put my phone up and sealed the bag, my husband started joking about what if threw me off into the water. Then like a minute later we were both flipped into the water. I held onto my glasses for dear life while I was dunked under the water since I'm useless without them lol. When I came up for air, I called him an @$$hole because he threw me in the water, but he swears it was a wave the knocked us in. I, on the other hand still find it suspicious that we ended up in the water right after he made jokes about throwing me in.  

It was absolutely worth it though, just for the view that we saw out there in Lake Havasu. I told my husband it reminded me of photos I've seen of Greece. I feel like the one picture I took doesn't even do the real thing justice.

We had an amazing time! I tried to drive the jet ski, and it was pretty unstable compared to a jet ski I drove in the past. My husband said it was because it was a smaller jet ski, and the waves were pretty rough. I switched back quickly and let my husband take the lead on driving instead. I would definitely suggest jet skiing in Lake Havasu City! If you are interested in seeing older posts from my experience in Arizona, please visit my Steemit page: https://steemit.com/@bosssarah
